This week is all about a range of spaces and options which can be used to add value to webpages including blogs, wikis and other sites. They are by no means the only options that are out there and you are encouraged to identify any other similar ones and share them in our Edmodo space. What I have provided here is a short overview of each option along with a movie. You are encouraged to think about the options and how they might be used in your second assessment option, the teaching and learning space.
